Application of double-spike isotope dilution for the accurate determination of Cr(III), Cr(VI) and total Cr in yeast

A method is presented for the simultaneous determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in yeast using species-specific double-spike isotope dilution (SSDSID) with anion-exchange liquid chromatography (LC) separation and sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometric (SF-ICP-MS) detection. Total Cr is quantitated using ID SF-ICP-MS. Samples were digested on a hot plate at 95±2 °C for 6 h in an alkaline solution of 0.5 M NaOH and 0.28 M Na₂CO₃ for the determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI), whereas microwave-assisted decomposition with HNO₃ and H₂O₂ was used for the determination of total Cr. Concentrations of 2,014±16, 1,952±103 and 76±48 mg kg⁻¹ (one standard deviation, n=4, 3, 3), respectively were obtained for total Cr, Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in the yeast sample. Significant oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI) (24.2±7.6% Cr(III) oxidized, n=3) and reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) (37.6±6.5% Cr(VI) reduced, n=3 ) occurred during alkaline extraction and subsequent chromatographic separation at pH 7. Despite this significant bidirectional redox transformation, quantitative recoveries for both Cr(III) and Cr(VI) were achieved using the SSDSID method. In addition, mass balance between total Cr and the sum of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) concentrations was achieved. Method detection limits of 0.3, 2 and 30 mg kg⁻¹ were obtained for total Cr, Cr(VI) and Cr(III), respectively, based on a 0.2-g sub-sample.

Fragmentation studies of pentacoordinated bisaminoacylspirophosphoranes by negative electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Fragmentation pathways of a series of pentacoordinated bisaminoacylspirophosphoranes were elucidated by electrospray ionization multistage mass spectrometry (ESI-MS(n)) in negative mode. The deprotonated ions of pentacoordinated bisaminoacylspirophosphoranes tend to eliminate a corresponding amino acid to form base peak. The hydrogen/deuterium exchange experiment, the high-resolution mass spectrometry, (13)C stable isotope labeling experiment and theoretical calculations were used to rationalize the proposed fragmentation pathways and to verify the differences between the fragmentation pathways. The results indicate that the negative molecular ions of pentacoordinated bisaminoacylspirophosphoranes dissociate through its open-chain tricoordinated tautomers. The relative Gibbs free energies (ΔG) of the product ions and proposed fragmentation pathways were estimated using the B3LYP/6-31 + + G(d, p) model. The results have some potential applications in the identification structures of similar spirophosphorane compounds by ESI-MS(n).     

Vibrational isotope effect by the low rank perturbation method

Mathematical formalism of the Low Rank Perturbation method (LRP) is applied to the vibrational isotope effect in the harmonic approximation with a standard assumption that force field does not change under isotopic substitutions. A pair of two n-atom isotopic molecules A and B which are identical except for isotopic substitutions at ρ atomic sites is considered. In the LRP approach vibrational frequencies ω _k and normal modes of the isotopomer B are expressed in terms of the vibrational frequencies ν _i and normal modes of the parent molecule A. In those relations complete specification of the normal modes is not required. Only amplitudes at sites τ affected by the isotopic substitutions and in the coordinate direction s (s = x, y, z) are needed. Out-of-plane vibrations of the (H,D)-benzene isotopomers are considered. Standard error of the LRP frequencies with respect to the DFT frequencies is on average . This error is due to the uncertainty of the input data (± 0.5 cm⁻¹) and in the absence of those uncertainties and in the harmonic approximation it should disappear. In comparing with experiment, one finds that LRP frequencies reproduces experimental frequencies of (H,D)-benzene isotopomers better () than scaled DFT frequencies () which are designed to minimize (by frequency scaling technique) this error. In addition, LRP is conceptually and numerically simple and it also provides a new insight in the vibrational isotope effect in the harmonic approximation.     

Rate Coefficients and Kinetic Isotope Effects of Cl+XCl→XCl+Cl (X=H,D, Mu) Reactions from Ring Polymer Molecular Dynamics

The ring-polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) was used to calculate the thermal rate coefficients and kinetic isotope effects of the heavy-light-heavy abstract reaction Cl+XCl\begin{document}$ \rightarrow $\end{document}XCl+Cl (X = H, D, Mu). For the Cl+HCl reaction, the excellent agreement between the RPMD and experimental values provides a strong proof for the accuracy of the RPMD theory. And the RPMD results are also consistent with results from other theoretical methods including improved-canonical-variational-theory and quantum dynamics. The most novel finding is that there is a double peak in Cl+MuCl reaction near the transition state, leaving a free energy well. It comes from the mode softening of the reaction system at the peak of the potential energy surface. Such an explicit free energy well suggests strongly there is an observable resonance. And for the Cl+DCl reaction, the RPMD rate coefficient again gives very accurate results compared with experimental values. The only exception is at the temperature of 312.5 K, results from RPMD and all other theoretical methods are close to each other but slightly lower than the experimental value, which indicates experimental or potential energy surface deficiency.

Theoretical calculation of the partial cross section for first vibrational excitation in He-H2（D2,T2） collisions

In this paper, close-coupling method was applied to the He-H2 （D2,T2） system, and the first vibrational excitation cross sections of ＇00-10, 00-12, 00-14, 00-16＇ at different incident energy have been calculated. By analyzing the ditferences of these partial wave cross sections, this paper have obtained the change rules of the partial wave cross sections with increases of quantum number, and with change of reduced mass of system. Based on the calculation, influence on the partial wave cross sections brought by the variations in the reduced mass of systems and in the relative kinetic energy of incident atoms is discussed.[第一段]

Alpha Decay of the Neutron-deficient Isotopes 215,216U

The most neutron-deficient isotopes 215;216U were produced in the complete-fusion reaction 180W(40Ar, 4-5n)215,216U. Evaporation residues recoiled from the target were separated in-flight from the primary beam by the gas-filled recoil separator SHANS and subsequently identified on the basis of correlated -decay chains. Two -decaying states were identified in 216U, one for the ground state and the other for the isomeric state with 8+(h9=2f7=2) configuration. The -decay properties for 215;216U and the systematics of 8+ isomeric state in N =124,126 isotones were investigated.
